Viewing the unfathomable #ScaleOfTime, maybe some beings live #eons and regard us in the same ratio as humans to #LightningBugs. We're so proud of cleverly blinking our lights, we don't get that the lack of response is because they're still #ReachingForTheRaid. 🤔🤷♂️
#Fireflies lit up summer nights for 100 million years. Now they’re disappearing & you don't notice,your yard is flooded with artificial light 24/7.
Lawn chemicals (larvae live in soil,pesticides kill them)

A tote bag and sign from the Xerces Society lie on a fluffy rubbed-texture offwhite blanket. The tote bag on the left has an X logo in negative space with the triangles around the angles of the X showing, clockwise from left, a light blue moth or butterfly on a dark blue field, a light green bee on a dark green field, a dark blue dragonfly on a light blue field, and a dark green lightning bug on a light green field. Beneath the image it reads “Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation” with the first two words in a larger stylized font. The sign, on the right, has an arched top and reads “Pollinator Habitat” in large letters, with an image of purple, pink, and yellow flowers visited by an orange and black monarch butterfly, a small blue butterfly, and two bees, all against a light green background. On the left side of the sign is a Xerces Society logo in black, with under it small text reading “Planted for pollinators and protected from pesticides. Join in at xerces.org.”
Got my sign and tote bag from the #XercesSociety today! Psst, hey @xercessociety.bsky.social, I would wear the heck out of a t-shirt with that tote bag design. In multiple colors. And a sweatshirt. Just sayin’.

A European rabbit sitting quietly amidst a dense, dimly lit garden setting. Surrounding it are glowing fireflies, luminous, contrasting beautifully with the dark, shadowy background. A secret moment caught. The color palette is subdued, dominated by deep greens and browns, punctuated by the yellow lights of the fireflies, evoking a magical atmosphere.
Night falls, fireflies light the path.

A picture from Wikimedia by Claude Everett showing fireflies in a meadow between trees in the evening.
Just remembering childhood lightning bugs. And finishing this note with steps to take to try to restore them.

It might look like a black screen, but if you watch closely, you’ll see the flickers of the lightning bugs. Like all insects, they are declining worldwide. Habitat loss, pesticides and light pollution are all major contributing factors to their disappearance.

Close-up photo of a firefly beetle on a tall green leaf. It's body is black and it's head is red.
Firefly, aka lightning bug. 💡
Definitely my favorite beetle.
Possibly my favorite insect.
Always a favorite part of summer.

I found a YouTube tutorial that looked like fun, so I followed along. It does look similar to the artist’s version. I loved it because of the #fireflies ( #lightningbugs). We don’t have them here in the PNW & I miss them from my childhood on the east side of the Rockies. #watercolor #forest

Don’t judge, or do idgaf… but mostly enjoy like I do☺️⚡️🪰🖤
We have them here in NE Ohio.
When they come out at night, that my cue to go inside to avoid being eaten by mosquitoes.

This past Friday I went out with some friends to take photos of lightning bugs. By pure chance we got #lighting and #LightningBugs
It was an amazing glimpse at nature - glad to have shared the moment with friends. #Photography #Entomology
Did you know you can learn different firefly patterns to identify what species it is? This sticker is based on the synchronous fireflies at Congaree.
...
You can help fireflies by keeping down your light pollution at night.

Two magical creatures—a photo taken by my husband at sunset. By the glow of a firefly, this ruby-throated hummingbird stops for his last sips of nectar for the day. #fireflies #hummingbirds #lightningbugs
